Ventilation work in and around Potter's Forstal is risk-based: inspect, then clean what needs it. If you manage a school such as Egerton Church of England Primary School, ventilation cleaning is best booked for the holidays.

How we handle ventilation duct cleaning in Potter's Forstal
In a building in Potter's Forstal, the people inside spend hours breathing what the ventilation delivers. Clean ducts are part of a healthy building, as much as clean filters and a well-kept AHU. Typical jobs include systems with no record of inspection or cleaning and ducts that need a clean before handover, across offices and schools, hospitals and care homes and toilet extract systems.
Somewhere as small as Potter's Forstal, ducted ventilation is normally limited to a school, a care home, a surgery or a converted business building, wherever there is one, but those that do need it inspected and cleaned like any other.
Good records are part of the job. Each visit is written up with pictures, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. File it in your maintenance log so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that’s where we come in.
What happens if it’s left?
Where a building in Potter's Forstal serves patients, residents or children, putting off ventilation cleaning is hard to justify. Clean ducts are part of providing good air for the people inside. It’s worth booking a check, because nobody sees inside a duct day to day.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we survey first, from photos or on site, and the price is agreed before we start.

Looking after it afterwards
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Get leaks near ductwork fixed quickly
- Tell your facilities team about dirty diffusers
- Store cleaning certificates where auditors can find them
- Diary the next TR19® Air inspection
If there’s building work planned, protect the ventilation. Turn off the system or cover the openings during dusty jobs.
Keep filters changed on time. Overloaded or poorly seated filters let dust straight through.

How we price ventilation duct cleaning
The diagnosis comes before the price. The main factors are:
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- The number of sites or systems
- How big the system is
- Travel, parking and unloading
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we will go through it with you.
What to send for a quote
A few details help us quote accurately. With your enquiry, please include:
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
Every quote begins with a look at the system, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before any work starts.
When something else is needed
In fairness, there are a few things this work will not fix:
- A system that is not designed to move enough air
- Building management settings that run the plant
- Ducts that are damaged, corroded or leaking and need replacing
Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will tell you honestly.
Parts of the system we cover
- Toilet extract systems
- Offices and schools
- General extract ductwork
- Supply ductwork
- Grilles and diffusers
- Hospitals and care homes
Part by part
Offices and retail
In offices and retail, we often work evenings, overnight or at weekends so staff and customers aren’t disturbed.
Extract ductwork
A dirty extract duct makes its fan work harder. A clean duct takes the load off.
How the visit works
At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and the same goes into the written report. All told, the work takes a weekend for a modest system, with large buildings phased floor by floor. If you can send photos, we can arrive in Potter's Forstal knowing what to expect.
- We survey the system from drawings, photos or a site visit.
- Inspection comes next, with photos of the inside of the ducts.
- Floors and furniture are covered and the ventilation turned off.
- We clean the ductwork, grilles and diffusers through access panels.
- A certificate and before and after photos follow, with anything not reached recorded.
How to prepare
- Move anything stored near the system
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down

Yes, of course. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we’ll suggest a schedule and quote for it.

What is TR19® Air?
TR19® Air is the part of BESA’s TR19® that covers general supply and extract ventilation, rather than kitchen extract. It’s risk-based and led by inspection, and kitchen extract falls under TR19® Grease.
What do you do to protect the area?
Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before any work starts, and waste is contained as we go. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.
